My Chemical Romance breakup

Leave a Comment
So, the unthinkable has occured - the infamous rock band My Chemical Romance has apparently broken up, as per lead singer Gerard Way's long post on Reddit just recently. Stating that the "truth became louder than the music," Way reminisced about the times when MCR was an up-and-coming band, when their passion was at their strongest.
Being a fan myself in my younger years, I was definitely one of those people who lived vicariously through the band, watching videos and interviews and being captivated not only by Way's dark yet illuminating style, but by the power of the band as a whole in truly captivating that youthful angst and cathartic feeling. As many other long-time MCR fans know, this breakup not only means the end of the band but in a way, an end of their constant hopes of the band coming up with a new album that will excite them.
However, some say that the band is actually just going to reinvent itself, that Gerard Way will still continue to make music.  Or as Way himself wrote, "My Chemical Romance... will never die, because it is not a band - it is an idea."
